Correct Answer - Option 4 : Rs. 3,600
Given:
A's investment = Rs. 10,000
B's investment = Rs. 12,000
Total profit = Rs. 8100
Concept used:
Divide the total profit according to investment ratio.
Calculations:
The total investment of A in 12 months = 10000 × 12
The total investment of B in 8 months = 12000 × 8
The ratio of equivalent capitals of A and B for 1 month = (10000 × 12) ∶ (12000 × 8) = 5 ∶ 4
B’s share = 8100 × 4/9 = Rs. 3,600
∴ The share of B is Rs. 3,600.
